That first packet apparently gave him a flying start on the rows of beans, peas, carrots, squash, turnips, potatoes, Jerusalem artichokes and comfrey, an herb he mainly uses for tea, that now fill his garden. Neighbors often help with the staples. "I like certain things," admits the bishop, and the word gets around.

Murdoch is too commercially astute to try to fill the gap left by the Times (he couldn't anyway). Instead, while he has the spotlight he has been trying to start up a new Sunday paper and a salty new morning tabloid to compete against the New York Daily News...
